Abortion is OK in Spain

I was watching on TV (CNN News) that Spain approved a law which abortion was allowed more easier than before.

Spain on Wednesday approved a sweeping new law that eases restrictions on abortion, declaring the practice a woman's right and doing away with the threat of imprisonment, in part of a drive toward liberal policies that has angered conservatives and the Catholic Church.

The new law allows the procedure without restrictions up to 14 weeks and gives 16- and 17-year-olds the right to have abortions without parental consent. The senate's passage of the bill Wednesday gives it final approval.

Something that really scares me is the fact that this types of law are every time more expanded. I have always said that abortion is killing a person, even though is not even born.

The bill brings the country in line with its more secular neighbors in northern Europe is the latest of a series of bold social reforms undertaken by Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, who first took office in 2004 and has ruffled feathers among many in the traditionally Catholic country.

There will be happy and unhappy people with this new law, but the ones that will never have a chance to say a word about the situation, are the babies that will be killed, that's for sure.
